Premium Designs. Off the Hook.
Every architectural designer knows the
feeling, you get towards the end of a
project and then you run into a problem.
No matter how hard you try, you
just can’t source what on the face of it
seems a pretty basic component in a
style that suits your overall design.
But at Sugatsune, we know that details
matter. You should never be forced to
make a compromise on your design.
That’s why we are constantly innovating
new products in all of our ranges even
products seemingly as simple as hooks.
All too often, component manufacturers
focus on items like handles and pulls in
their design collections, offering an extensive
range. But then for anyone who
wants hooks as well, there is nothing to
match.
Over the last 40 years we have been developing
our range of hooks to cater to
emerging needs. This has taken us on
quite a development journey and allows
Sugatsune to offer one of the biggest
range of hooks for domestic and commercial
use available on the market. Our
aim is to make sure our customers can
find the right hook for every design, for
every purpose, on every occasion, with
an uncompromising commitment to
build quality, durability and style.
How it all began; We used our expertise
to manufacture a comprehensive range
of hard-wearing utility hooks designed
for industrial and outdoor environments.
This range extends to also offer corrosion-resistant
SUS316 for marine environments.
Our world class design team is never
afraid to push the boundaries of a basic
component concept, this led us to develop
a number of products that go way
beyond the basic hook prototype. For
example, counter and recessed hooks
add value by tucking neatly out of the
way when the hook itself is not in use,
providing a clean, seamless appearance
but also helping to avoid snags in
tight spaces like the seats or toilets on
planes and trains.
As hooks came indoors, we placed an
emphasis on providing choice of design
without compromising on quality. Our
PXB range is available in different materials
- wood, brass, leather, rubber – they
are carefully chosen to create dozens of
different styles to suit different aesthetics.
The key with the hooks available within
our PXB range is that they are part of
something bigger - handles, bars, pulls,
racks and more, all delivering a unified
design. Whatever your concept, our PXB
brand ensures you won’t be let down
looking for the right style of hook.
All of this focus on appearance does not
mean we have taken our eye off the ball
when it comes to the functionality of our
hooks. Just the opposite, in fact. Alongside
our extensive selection of hooks for
interiors we have continued to develop
our ranges with additional functionality.
Our under-counter hooks, for example,
can lie flat under the bars where
customers sit, safely out of the way so
legs and clothing aren’t caught against
them. But when required, a hook can
simply be pulled down to provide a
convenient and secure place to hang a
jacket or handbag safely out of the way
and off the floor. With our built in patented
soft close damper technology
when the load is removed, instead of
snapping back flat, the hook smoothly
and gently returns to its closed position.
If you are still looking for that extra special
touch; Within our Zwei L range,
every hook is crafted from premium
quality stainless steel before undergoing
a meticulous polishing process to
achieve the signature ‘dual light’ contrasting
satin and mirror finish. Robe
hooks and hangers are elevated above
the mundane, making each an exquisite
addition to the most luxurious bathrooms.
To us, even hooks are worthy of these
premium touches.
